Abstract

A selective medium was developed that is capable of isolating Phanerochaete chrysosporium from soil. This medium contains 15 ppm of benomyl (15 mug g) and 550 ppm of streptomycin sulfate in 2% malt agar and is held at 39 degrees C after inoculation. P. chrysosporium was isolated from three nonsterile forest soils to which the fungus had been added. These soils contained large microbial populations.
